6 steps Oven 375°F 10 min prep · 35 min cook

Prep

Step 1. Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Set out a baking dish.

Cook

Step 2. Heat Olive Oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add Turkey Sausage and Bell Pepper; break up the sausage and cook until no pink remains and the pepper softens, about 7 minutes.
Step 3. Add Baby Spinach and stir until wilted and any liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Take the skillet off the heat.
Step 4. Whisk Eggs, Cottage Cheese, Salt, and Black Pepper in a bowl. Stir in the sausage and vegetables, then pour into the baking dish.
Step 5. Bake until the center is set and a knife inserted there comes out without liquid egg, about 25 minutes.

Finish & serve

Step 6. Let the bake rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Meanwhile, toast Bread until golden and serve alongside.

Tips

Good to know

For safety, check that the turkey sausage and the center of the egg bake reach 165°F.

Swap it

Use mild chicken sausage in place of turkey sausage if needed.

Leftovers

Refrigerate leftover slices for up to 3 days and reheat until hot; toast fresh bread to serve.
